Description
Reproduction
of an
illustration
depicting
Pontiac
, an
Ottawa
chief
.
Chief
Pontiac
was
born
circa
1720
. By
1755
, he was a
chief
of the
Ottawas
.
Pontiac
subscribed
to the
religious
beliefs
of
Neolin
, a
prophet
of the
Delaware
people
,
who
encouraged
native
people
to
forsake
English
goods
and
customs
.
When
the
French
and
Indian
War
ended
in
1763
,
all
French
lands
in
North
America
were
turned
over
to the
English
.
Native
people
lost
their
long-time
French
ally
and
worried
that
more
British
settlers
would
come
to the
Ohio
Country
.
Pontiac
and the
Ottawas
encouraged
tribes
in the
Ohio
Country
to
rise
up
in
1763
. The
Ottawas
attacked
Fort
Detroit
in
May
1763
. The
Shawnee
,
Munsee
,
Wyandot
,
Seneca
and
Delaware
people
also
raided
English
settlements
in the
Ohio
Country
and in
western
Pennsylvania
during
1763
. The
English
military
invaded
the
Ohio
Country
from
Pennsylvania
in the
fall
of
1764
and
subdued
the
Native
American
tribes
.
Pontiac's
Rebellion
ended
in the
fall
of
1764
and
Pontiac
formally
surrendered
to the
English
in
July
1766
. In
